“…The importance of effectively recovering from a training bout in athletes of any age is well documented (Barnett, 2006;Vaile, Halson, & Graham, 2010). Frequently utilised recovery interventions include active recovery (Greenwood, Moses, Bernardino, Gaesser, & Weltman, 2008;Menzies et al, 2010), stretching (Torres, Pinho, Duarte, & Cabri, 2013), compression garments (Bottaro, Martorelli, & Vilaça, 2011;Driller & Halson, 2013;Duffield et al, 2008;MacRae, Cotter, & Laing, 2011), hydrotherapy including cold water immersion and contrast water immersion (Peiffer, Abbiss, Watson, Nosaka, & Laursen, 2010a;Versey, Halson, & Dawson, 2013), sleep (Venter, 2012), massage (Wiltshire et al, 2010), and nutrition (Beelen, Burke, Gibaia, & Van Loon, 2010).…”
